Our heads swollen with grip, we tried slinging the Si into the downhill right of Hog Pen at Camaro ZL1 1LE speed—actually the Si’s entry at 89.2 mph was higher than the 1LE’s. The Si couldn’t handle all that speed, though, and exited the corner at a low 84.7 mph. The fact that we felt like it might have been able to, and that it came out the other side on the track and not on the grass, goes to show that the Si makes a treacherous track seem easy.

As expected, a solid and confident core chassis let down by a too tame suspension setup. Stiffer springs and more camber please. The 10th gen Si has so much potential

Still sitting here hoping for an early update/refresh

Nice driving on the editor though, especially given the track conditions. Very muggy!

It's the combination of the excellent driving dynamics that made me purchase my Si on the first test drive and very little research. I did months of research on the Elantra Sport for comparison, but the 10th Si is just a level above..

4mph slower in a section than a Turbo S and faster entry speed than a track special 1LE is something we can all be proud of. Like said above, grippier tires will be awesome for this car!

LL1 selection seems to be limited. Up to 34K is a lot of different cars (I think the SI is the cheapest one on the list). No GTI, No fords, no mazda, or many of the other cars you commonly see the civic compared to. Most of the cars listed are also "sports" cars while the SI is a spiried eco box. Oh well....

Really impressive, but I can't say I'm too surprised. This new Si definitely delivers on the track. We recently went to Willow Springs with our 2017 Si sedan and it exceeded our expectations in almost every way. It was stock except for a FlashPro +6 PSI tune only enabled when the Sport button was pressed.
